The junior doctors’ strike does make today ‘bleak’, but Jeremy Hunt is to blame

Jeremy Hunt really does have a nerve. He has admitted the strike has made this “a bleak day” for the health service but still won’t accept that he is responsible and should take the blame.

Opposition MPs should be demanding his resignation – not only for this failure but for all the others since he became health secretary. Have you seen the meteoric rise in the GP vacancy rate, in England, since he took over? Here:

The first all-out doctors’ strike in the history of he NHS has begun in England with ministers admitting it is a “bleak day” for the health service.

But Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt again reiterated that the government would not back down and halt the imposition of the new contract.

Junior doctors walked out of routine and emergency care at 08:00 BST.

It is the first time services such as A&E, maternity and intensive care have been affected in the dispute.

NHS bosses believe plans are in place to ensure safety, but say the situation will be monitored closely during the stoppage which ends at 17:00 BST.

Further all-out strike action is due to take place on Wednesday, between the same hours.

The Tory Bstards are the only ones to blame for any deaths that are the result of this strike, the TORIES have starved almost to the death of our NHS by strangling the funds that are needed to give a service that we are all proud of. We need rid of these evil liars.

All of this mess can be laid at the tories door, especially CHunt’s, he’s made such a bloody mess of this and it’s only going to get worse, the doctors I hope can hold out and embarrass this clown so much that he has to leave his job that he is not fit to be in!
